UHC filters - useful for imaging as well as visual?

Hi all, a novice question that I have been wondering about, but one that may also help other beginners.

Will a UHC filter enhance astro-photos of nebulae taken with an DSLR like it enhances the view through an eyepiece?

I ask this as I am thinking of purchasing one and don't want to make a mistake of having to wrongly use it for imaging if it is really only for visual assistance.

I have just received a EOS300D that has been astro modified, but haven't had a chance to give it a try as yet.

As always, guidance and opinions are appreciated.

Clear skies,
Bruce.
